Welcome to Gaia! ::

UnCert

Name: Isambard
Title: Deus Ex Machina
Domain: Industry
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Hair: As a morph he retains his host's messy hair, though it has taken on a reddish tinge.
Eyes:One eye is green the other is the colour of flame and seems to be as changable.
Skintone: His skin is paleish and would look unusual to most mortals, his joints are hinged, almost as though he were mechanical himself.
Build: Like his host he is tall and lean.
Personality: Isambard is organised, efficient and pragmatic. He is also rather shrewd and ruthless. If there is not something in it for him, he's not likely to be interested. He has a talent for manipulation and is able to appeal easily to the masses in order to bend them to his will. When appealing to others he will appear as one of them rather than use his divinity to distance himself. (Think Lenin's 'man of the people' tactics)
Isambard is also a Hard-working, meticulous deity and can be a slave driver. He likes to get things done no matter what the cost. Time is money after all and only fools stand in the way of progress.

Likes: Being productive, planning and plotting, himself.
Dislikes: Slackers, being idle, stupidity.

Powers:
minor assembly line - If someone gives an item a breadbox size or smaller to Isambard, as well as a small stockpile of raw materials, he can break down its make and shape in his mind and magically create a mechanized assembly line to reproduce the item. The item will be at only 50% functionality/niceness compared to the handmade, artisan item as a reflection of the failings of industrialized production. One magical assembly line creates replicas for a few hours and could make enough for 10-25 people. The items ARE permanent, and do not disappear. It doesn't matter how complicated the small item. Someone could give him a cell phone, a pile of plastic bottles, metal for chips and such, and some crystal stuff and his little assembly line would make 10-25 crappy little cellphones. Functional, so who's going to complain?

minor automatonic - Given enough high quality materials, Once every few months Isambard can create a clockwork creature (like Bubo, the little owl from the original Clash of the Titans). They aren't very smart, and they can only have one simple function just yet (dig holes, fold paper airplanes), but are like an ageless immortal in that they do not run down and happily do their task independent of direction (maybe not the best idea if its digging holes- hello grand canyon). This is the creativity and play of industry.
